Realgm's 2010-11 Top 25 most valuable players

[Trader_Joe]

Dallas is the team I see the most other than NJ or NY since I go to Irving about once a month for work and we even have corporate seats there.

Also that 2-7 is hardly reflective of what Dallas would be w/o him.

- 6 Losses to SAS x 2, OKC, ORL, @ MIL, @ IND.
- Their offense is based around Dirk. It would not be without him there and the team offense and defense would look different. The Mavs entering a season w/o Dirk would be a different team, and not a 2-7 pace team. They would probably be around .500.

And of course he's efficient as hell. His team is stacked and he's playing with a HOF PG, who may not be the player he once was but certainly knows how to run an offense and get Dirk the ball when and where he needs to.

I'm not arguing that Dirk is not still a great player. I'm arguing his value which I think is inflated. The guy is slowing down and I've been saying it for some time. He's had two somewhat significant injuries each of the last two seasons, which don't bode well either.

Best player on a .500 team vs the best player on a .700 team.

Best player on a team that was streaking towards the 5 seed before the Melo drama ensured. Also, the Knicks were a 29 win team or something last year and replace their best player (Lee) with Amare and look where it takes them.

No mention of Felton or Fields...

I was unaware we were talking about the Knicks, I thought this was about Amare.

Isn't Amare on the Knicks.. as are Landry and Felton?
What were you calling me biased on?

Being in love with Amare and hating Dirk because he's German.

LOL
I don't like Amare because he's on the Knicks.
And I'm 1/2 German and go to Dallas every month or two so I like Dirk.
Nice try.

My complaints:

- How did Cousins make the list? I can think of 10+ guys I'd rank over him, including his teammate Tyreke Evans.

- Wall is talented but I don't think he's proven enough to be ranked over LMA and others.

- Noah should definitely be on the list. He's more valuable than Bosh in my eyes.

Cousins being in the list is a complete joke.
